Commanders Are Practicing In Arizona All Week... Smart?
Next up a Sunday game in Arizona against the Cardinals the commanders are already there in fact They flew directly from Cincinnati to Arizona They spent a couple extra hours in the locker room soaking up the wind celebrating They got to the airport they flew overnight got some sleep on the bird and then landed got some more sleep And they'll be back on the practice field moving forward now midweek into Sunday I think it's really smart actually for two reasons. The first is obvious. I Think it's better on their bodies and it takes five minutes talking to whatever the team's sleep doctor and psychologist is Hey, what's best for us that they vote on it? And then the coach does whatever they say and clearly it's travel a lot of teams don't do it for a heavier reasons One of which is it is pretty expensive and it's a lot of money that you're shelling out There's no real proven way to say this is helpful So the ROI when you convince somebody to spend that money can be complicated But the thing I didn't consider that I saw and Dan Quinn's transcript from yesterday's press conference He thinks this is gonna be helpful because they're not coming home after this giant win to their families to their friends to spend time around all of their loved ones and buddies who are gonna tell them how amazing Monday was and how awesome they are I didn't really think about that But I actually think there's something to that like over the years this team when they've had a win like this There haven't been many of them, but these stunningly impressive awesome nighttime prime time performances You read your press clippings a little bit and they almost always the next week come back to Earth and maybe that happens I don't know what happens yet in Arizona But don't you think there's something to again Quinn's point was we don't have any time to go back home And for anyone to basically pump our tires. We are on to the next we're going to be insulated We're not gonna be seeing TV or reading anything. We're gonna be at the team hotel I'm keeping the guys busy and we are focusing on the Cardinals I actually think that could be really beneficial and there's something to that I mean to me it's more what I thought of was that they don't have a go away training a camp They they all go to their homes every night when they're in ashburn, right? So this is almost like a de facto training camp where you're away from home for a couple of weeks do another football living breathing eating sleeping You know trying to go in football games I mean with that axiom though where you go you play well a couple times Let's say they play well this week and win which would be awesome You eventually do have to come home and you have to venture to see your loved ones and see some of those press clippings But I understand it to a degree where for a team that isn't used to deal with the one thing we always talk about is they don't handle prosperity very well This organization just simply hasn't going all the way back to the beginning of Snyder Anytime something good happened you knew that the other shoe was about to drop You knew that the you know the ice was gonna give way or whatever that and everything was gonna go back to being terrible And maybe worse than it was before so I understand that to a degree for a group It's trying to prove itself and establish something that this might be coming at the right time in the fast-paced world of attacking Speed is everything and that's where the fear on seven plus shines Engineered for accuracy and precision at a rapid pace.
